How to use this tool ↗

Tell us about your data landscape

Adjust the values below to get your personalized results

Your team

Data consumers iBusiness users and analysts who use data in their work — reading dashboards, running queries, making decisions. Do not include engineers or analytics staff counted below.

Data engineers iEngineers who build and maintain data pipelines. Count only dedicated data engineering roles — not analytics staff.

Data analytics staff iPeople who build reports, models, and data products — analytics engineers, BI developers, data analysts. Count separately from data engineers above.

Governance & compliance FTEs iCombined headcount for data governance and compliance roles. Count separately from engineering and analytics staff above.

Your data environment

Avg data searches per user per week iHow many times per week does a typical data consumer search for a dataset, table, or metric?

Avg time per search today (minutes) iFrom question to trusted answer. IDC measured an average of 50 min today, dropping to 5 min with DataHub.

Annual business cost of data downtime iTotal annual cost of data outages — engineering hours, delayed decisions, revenue impact. Gartner avg: $13.95M/yr. $7M is a conservative mid-market estimate.

Annual data storage cost iCloud + on-prem combined storage spend. DataHub reduces orphaned and redundant data by an average of 8%.

AI / ML program

How many AI or ML projects are you running? iActive AI/ML projects at any stage — development, testing, or production.

Compliance risk

How many compliance obligations does your organization manage? iIncludes regulatory requirements and standards such as GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, PCI-DSS, SOC2, ISO 27001, etc.

Estimated financial impact of a compliance breach iIncludes potential regulatory fines, legal costs, remediation efforts, and business impact such as downtime or lost revenue.

Annual cost of tools DataHub replaces iIf DataHub replaces existing data catalog or observability tools, enter their combined annual license cost. Leave 0 if not applicable.

Your estimated annual value from DataHub Cloud

$3.8M

Total annual value

+0 FTEs

Team capacity gained

Data team & user productivity iTime saved searching for data, plus productivity gains for engineers and analysts. We multiply your team size by IDC-measured improvement rates and average hourly rates.

AI operationalization iFewer AI projects fail when teams trust their data. We multiply your number of AI projects by 24% failure reduction and an estimated $300K average project cost.

Data quality & resilience iDataHub customers experience 48% fewer data outages and resolve them 58% faster. We apply both rates to your estimated annual data downtime cost.

$3.8M

Governance & compliance iBetter metadata and lineage coverage reduces the risk of costly compliance failures. We apply a 32% audit risk reduction to your potential fine exposure, plus efficiency gains for your governance team.

Infrastructure & tools iDataHub identifies and retires redundant and orphaned datasets. We apply an 8% reduction to your storage cost, plus any tool licenses DataHub replaces.
